1971 Buick Riviera in FL

Car looks very very rough...may check this out on 7-10....please post here
first if you need parts and then email me direct at

GS@BuickPerformanceClub.com

Thanks!

 

George. Does it have a passenger side mirror ? 4 note horn ? Thanks. LOU

 

Depending on what they want for it, I'd grab the whole thing if I were you. I'm too far away to really ask for any parts, but what is there looks pretty good.

 

Hey George,

I would be interested in the following pieces from that 71 Riv.

-rear trunk rubber flaps
-door strap end caps
-door strap hardware
-wiper demand parts (button on the end of the gearshifter)
-door panel hardware
-a/c bracket hardware
-automatic climate control parts?
-center console

Please let me know what you find. Thanks

Rob

 

Car for parts only....going there now and will get some more pics.

Will try to get all parts requested and let you know what I find/get.

 

Here are some pics...body is shot....so shot it is a SunCoupe Riv....absolutely no roof.....was a v.top car
and it was completely rusted away... has a early production 71 455. That is why the rear glass is just
sitting on the seats..no metal left for it.

No 4 note horns and no pass mirror.

Rob,
Got the AC brkt bolts/nuts for you.

Console is broken on the pass side between seats......"think" it may be repairable but not sure.
Other items on your list very bad condition..include door panel hardware, strap hardware
and end caps....car sat under a tree and did it in.....all interior parts are blistered/pitted due to exposure.

I will be going back there next week.......car does have factory cruise, pw, pdl, no p.trunk, open rear.

As before, if you need anything else......post here first and then email me.

 

I see where is was under some vegetation. Salt air car? It was dissolved.

 

How are the tail light bezels ? I could also use the drivers door handle if still functional.

 

Ext trim is shot....blistered/pitted.

Door handle driver's side....you mean exterior...does function but forgot
the condition...email me direct and I will be back there next week.

Jim,
Typically v.top car here in FL...very very bad idea with our high humidity..seen this
numerous times........don't think it was a salt water car since it came from in-land FL...after
v.top gave way....sat under a tree and that caused the rest of the damage/rust.
